The Independent Order of True Templars is a Christian institution established on Biblical principles and teachings. Refer to Prov 20:1; 23: 29-30; Lev 10:8-11; Dan 1:8-15 and to many other texts in order to understand that, basically, the Order of True Templars was established to fight against Alcohol abuse. Alcohol abuse brings destruction to family life let alone individual life that gets stripped of humaneness (UBUNTU). The result is gross sinning in the community of God’s people.
It was the suffering of our Lord Jesus Christ even on the Cross on Calvary that many felt and believed that He died for us. It is sin that caused the death of Christ on the Cross. “But God shows His love for us in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8
Jesus Christ the Son of God stood for all that is good and fought against sin. He died on the Cross, was buried and on the third day He rose from the dead. He conquered death and ascended into Heaven where He sitteth on the Right Hand of the Father, the Almighty Living God.
All those who conquer sin in His name will receive the Crown of Life (James 1:12) and (Revelations 2:10). Therefore, the people of God concluded that there is No Crown if there is No Cross. Plainly, the crux of the matter is the Cross of Christ. If there is NO CROSS, there is NO CROWN OF LIFE.
The main objective of the Order of True Templars is to uphold Jesus Christ and his Cross, to fight against all forms of substance abuse – Alcohol and Drugs, the enemies of many a family here on earth, to help restore a human being to the rightful place of honor and integrity, and to educate that there is True life in the Lord Jesus Christ.
